Asian Dogs

Asia is enriched with history, and the historyof the dog is no different. This is an enormous continent with a wide variety of cultures. Each influenced the world of dogbreeds in its own unique way.

Researchers have long believed that the first domestication of the dog took place in the Middle East. However, more recent testing points to eastern Asia. Either way, multiple DNA studies have pointed to this continent as having some of the oldest surviving breeds in the world.
